Dear Lord this load is heavy
I do not think I can
Carry such a burden
With my own two hands
I feel it getting heavier
Too much for me to bear
Sometimes I’m even wondering
If You really care
I know that You are with me
But sometimes I can’t see
Through all the tears I’m crying
The path in front of me
I know my faith is faltering
With each step that I take
Dear Lord I ask please help me through
I know I’m going to break
The tunnel that I’m following
There’s no light at the end
There is no one to help me now
On You I must depend
My child, these burdens that I give
Will help to make you strong
I know that you can make it
Now please, don’t take Me wrong
I’m standing here beside you
With each burden that you bear
I’ll help you get through all of this
Because I really care
The path that you are following
Has ups and downs and turns
I’ll be your eyes to guide you
As your toils churn
Though your faith is faltering
You know that I’m still here
I’ll stay here right beside you
Until the path is clear
When your burdens lighten
When the light shines through
Remember though the load is gone
I’ll still be here with you.

friday the thirteenth

friday the thirteenth is a good day for me. it seems that if i am going to get lucky, that is the day i will get lucky on. lmao. it never happens. but i dont generally have a bad day on friday the thirteenth.
i found a dollar in the trash can by my locker early this morning. so the day started off good.
i had time to give three baths to patients, which is good as i normally spend all day pushing drugs, which can get really monotanous.
the van drives beautifully now that i got the tires rotated and aligned. ready for trip to tenn.
daughter paid me the 20 bucks she owed me.
got to see all three of the grandkids. lots of kisses for me.
got invited to exes for taco dinner, as that is where oldest daugther is staying, so everyone was there for dinner.
escaped from exes before the "skin hunger" got too bad and i made a mistake. i am sure he is getting pretty lonely by now. it is cold outside and he has nothing to do to keep him busy, and the son moved out. now he is as alone as i am. there would be no trouble for me to get a fix, but i do not want to start up an old habit, so i left, lol.
what else? i am home now, so nothing bad can happen on friday the thirteenth. but i dont worry about it. hope other daughter stops and gives me money, but i didnt remind her, so probably wont.
two more days of work, then vacation. i think i feel a little excitement coming on. but only a little twinge so far. i think i am not looking forward to the eight hour drive. i will have company though. buddy the dog will make the trip with me as there is no one who will keep him for me.
kk, outta here i go
huggggggssssss

i hate winter

well, it is not really winter that i hate. it is the cold. brrrrrr. i do not tolerate cold really well. so today, after i did other errands, i put plastic on the windows that were not already covered. wanna know why the room upstairs could not be made warm? do you think busted window might have had something to do with it? two pane glass, the side by side panes, not the new thermal stuff. right side of glass big hole. now why did daughter not tell me so that i could have tended to it? and last year, when ex taped the plastic on the window, did he not do something about it? it had to be broken then. AND, why did he not put the storm window down to keep the cold out??? so here we have a cold room because plastic alone is not enough to keep the cold out when the frigging window is not really closed!!
plastic blinds fell and hit me in the head. almost fell off the step stool (no wonder you are not supposed to do this type of work when alone in the house, it is dangerous) and when working on the last window, the seat on the step stool fell and hit me in the nose when i was lifting it to move it out of the way (i was sitting on floor).
right now, i feel pretty toasty, but could that be because i went outside with out a jacket to put plastic over the airconditioner???
i dont need a man now. all the work is done. now i will just sit back and watch television, lolol.
huggggggsssssss

a new cherry

i promised my patient i would put this on the internet, so i must keep my promise.
ruby rose (name changed due to the privacy law) is my 90 year old patient. quite a gal she is. full of laughter and energy. i could only wish to be the same as her when i am just another year older!! she still lives at home and still takes care of herself.
yesterday morning i went into her room to give her morning medications. she was sitting in the recliner chair with her table across her lap.
she had just finished breakfast, which had been cleared away, all but this little butter container with a red marashino cherry in it.
"i see you looking at my cherry" she says.
"you didnt know they gave out cherries in the hospital, did you."
she gives a deep chuckle. a sparkle in her blue eyes. grinning like a cheshire cat.
"i am a ninety year old woman, and i never thought i would ever see my cherry again. and now i come to the hospital, and they give me a new one."
we are both laughing.
so i ask her. how long has it been for her. ( i need to know, i hope to be sexually active for a long time if i ever find another man who can handle me, lol)
she says, well, he died when i was 81 years old. so it has been 11 years. we both laugh so hard, and i say to her, "so, it takes 11 years for your cherry to grow back" and she says "yes, and i got proof. right here, i got my new cherry!"
hugggggggssssssss

thank you God for bright 90 year old ladies!!!

Days of Goodbye
My child has been called off to war
He will be leaving soon
I need to spend some time with him
Before he’s with his platoon
I swear he wasn’t home last week
He stayed with all his friends
I waited for a glimpse of him
Coming round the bend
I’d hear the door come open
I ran to see his face
But I was never quick enough
He’d left for another place
Yesterday he promised
He’d come home before night fell
I never got to see him
I truly want to yell
Today I found him sleeping
In his childhood bed
I went to stand beside him
And kiss him on the head
He turned his face towards me
And I could see the tears
My young man lay before me
Going backwards in his years
Mom you know I love you
Is what he said to me
I’m sorry that I wasn’t here
Where you wanted me to be
I found it hard to be here
Please let me tell you why
I could not bring myself to have
All those days of good-bye

the empty bed/poem

The Empty Bed
Standing in the bedroom door
She can’t bring herself to enter
The empty bed sits calling her
In their life it was the center
They had become inseparable
From the day which they met
They said that they would marry
And the day was set
She scrimped and saved the pennies
To buy them this huge bed
For the two of them to sleep in
After they were wed
When they finished high school
He gave her the promise ring
He joined the army and went to basic
Then they married in the spring
The bed was put together
First off in each new home
No matter where her love was based
This bed was sure to roam
Three babies were conceived
In this bed of love
While two babies do remain with her
One sleeps in heaven above
Saturday mornings were special
This bed held the family of four
Until that one Saturday morning
Her husband was called to war
Now she lies on the couch each night
She can’t make herself get into the bed
She had never been alone in it
Not since the night they wed
At night she would wake up to whispers
Straining to hear what was said
The voices she heard in the darkness
Were coming from the empty bed
Memories of the past
The whispers she listened to
She stood in the doorway listening to it
Begging for memories new
Tears falling down her cheeks
Wishing for the man that she wed
Until the day he comes home to her
She’ll be looking at this empty bed

Tiny fingers
Little toes
Rosebud mouth
button nose
Sweet and loving
Soft and tender
Gentle touches
Such a splendor
My first child
Lay in my arms
I must protect
From worldly harm
My great reward
To watch this child grow
Is the deepest love
I’ll ever know

good credit is a curse

yes, it is. you get all these offers for credit cards. banks are willing to lend you money,dealers wanting to sell you new cars, and what do you get from all of this? debts
my credit is 7 something. pretty good. but it causes me horrendous problems.
i have a vehicle that i pay near 400 a month on, and higher insurance rates.
i have a new bedroom, so the house payment is 400 a month. plus 75 on an extra loan, so i guess house payment is 475. and because i "own" the house, insurance there too.
and because i have these two large payments, i have disabilitly insurance so if i become disabled, it will pay. more money out there.
i have a mastercard, visa card, circuitcity card, and jcpenny card.
those cards in themselves are real trouble.
ok, the visa card is a bill consolidation, so i am good there. it paid off all the other cards so that i would only have one payment, and it is finance free until april. good. but better is that the interest rate is only 9% after that.
today i called jcpenny and cancelled that card out. pat me on the back. the other day i called and cancelled out the circuit city card. whoo hooo.
the mastercard, it has only 12.5 % interest, so i am keeping that, because i need something to use to pay off the after insurance medical bills, car repairs and such. i am debating on decreasing the credit limit, but i am still out on that one. even maxed out, the payments required are not over 50 a month, so fairly easy to reach.
my advice to all, leave the credit cards alone. they are only trouble. when buying a vehicle, check the insurance costs too. and a house, whether repairing or buying new, insurance and taxes.
use your head, not your dreams. dreams can be fullfilled, but you do not have to take yourself under in debt to do so.

friends with money. wasn't worth the money. at least in my opinion. jennifer aniston, joan cusack and some others. i reckon these 4 ladies had been friends for life (?) three of them are rich and jennifer isnt. the rich ones are married, and jennifer isnt. and jennifer can't get a decent boyfriend either. one couple is supposedly happy, one couple the wife has problems, and the other couple the husband is the problem. you get bits and pieces about each "family" life. truly boring movie to me. long and drawn out. but there was a happy ending. it ended. lolol.

take the lead with antonio banderas. he is a ballroom dancer, with his own studio of course. he witnesses a black high school student vandalizing his teachers car. next day, antonio goes to the high school and offers his services. i have seen other movies like this, but not with the ballroom dancing. of course he attempts to teach the hoodlums of new york to ballroom dance. i got this one because i love to watch people dance. i love to watch them move together or alone. in the movie, one of the young dancers says, it is like \bsexo?\b on hard wood. not being kinky or something, but yes, i think that it is. some of the dances are very seductive. some slow and gentle. i wish i could dance, but i make due with a little wiggle, lol.
oh, i think this is supposed to be based on a true story.
tomorrows movie, my friends with money(i think that is the name)
